Pharmacodynamics.
Atoxil is an enterosorbent with pronounced sorption properties, exhibits detoxification, antimicrobial and wound healing effects. Adsorbs from the digestive tract and removes endogenous and exogenous toxic substances of various origins from the body, including food and bacterial allergens, microbial endotoxins and other toxic substances, toxic products formed during the decay of proteins in the intestine.
Promotes the transportation from the internal environment of the body (blood, lymph, interstitium) to the digestive tract due to concentration and osmotic gradients of various toxic products, including medium molecules, oligopeptides, amines and other substances, with subsequent excretion from the body.

Interaction with other medicinal products and other types of interactions
With the simultaneous use of the drug Atoxil with acetylsalicylic acid, platelet disaggregation processes were enhanced.
In complex therapy with nicotinic acid and simvastatin, Atoxil exhibits a synergistic effect - it helps reduce the level of atherogenic fractions of the blood lipid spectrum and increase the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
The use of Atoxil during intracorporeal sorption detoxification in combination with standard antiseptic solutions (furatsilin, bifuran, trifuran, chlorhexidine bigluconate) increases the effectiveness of the treatment of purulent-inflammatory diseases.
